    • To gain access to the 6 bottom screws remove the following. Remove the adhered 4 corner foam pads on the bottom of the speaker using the blue plastic opening tool to reveal the screws underneath. Remove the adhered 2 center plastic squares.

    • Make sure the speaker is unplugged and powered down before doing any work on the device.

    Be consistent with vocabulary. For example, on the first step you used "foam pieces" and "pads" to identify the same thing and it may be confusing for some users.

    Remove the panel NOT by pushing or pulling the centre tab or you will break it. Instead, you’ll see two small tabs that must gently be pushed a little. Do not apply too much force. Once the grille comes loose pull it up. The upper side of the grille simply locks into place by moulded lips that fit into the top section of the product. Take care not to damage the now exposed loudspeakers.
